  • Hundreds of demonstrators gathered outside the Faculty of Arts of Manouba, near Tunis to demand the right of students in niqab to attend classes and take exams.

    The demonstrators, boys with Kamis and beards and girls in niqab shouted "Allah Akbar" (God is great), before the administration of the faculty. Clashes with other students who threw "Islamists out of here!" almost degenerated.

    The protesters demand the right for girls wearing the niqab, to pass their exams, a prayer room in the campus and not being mixed.

    Teachers and representatives of academic unions have gathered in general meeting in order to decide a strike Thursday to protest against these incidents.
